- catalog abstract "The church, like many ethnic immigrants, has been thrown into the "melting pot" that is America. To some this melting pot is a place where different cultures and races merge to form an integrated society, but Mark Griffin and Theron Walker argue that it's a place where communal traditions are traded in for consumer choices. The result is a homogeneous culture of consumption. As fellow ingredients of this melting pot, Christians have much to learn from ethnic immigrants about what it means to be outsiders. Bringing to light the work of some of America's finest first- and second-generation immigrant writers, the authors show that life on the borders of the ghetto and the culture of consumption promises freedom, peace, and justice.".
